Recipe Of The Day: Black Eyed Peas With Moldy Peaches

With some of the emails and comments I've received lately, I suppose I'm one dubious post away from one of you guys reporting me to CPS. Guess what? Here's your ammo!

Ammo... Dick Cheney... HaHaHaHaHa!

I digress.

Over the weekend, both Ella and I were guilty of exposing Zoey to songs she had no business hearing. It happens. But here's what I want to know: which one of us is the worse parent?

Ella and Zoey were riding to the grocery store on Friday. On the way there, Black Eyed Peas' My Humps came on the radio and Zoey immediately committed it to memory. She sang, "I love I love I love I love my lady" over and over and OVER all evening. True, she's singing the wrong lyrics, but...

What? I looked up the lyrics on the web. I don't know the lyrics to My Humps!

Hold on a sec, my nose is growing.

I'm such a poseur.

But the simple fact remains: SHE'S SINGING BLACK EYED PEAS!

Today, Zoey and I went to Target. On the way over, I was playing a mix CD. Normally, I'm pretty aware of what's coming out of my speakers and will turn down the volume if a song gets too offensive. I guess my mind was drifting because when Moldy Peaches' Who's Got The Crack? came on, I continued to play it at a normal volume. Next thing I know, we're inside Target and my Punk Rock Princess is singing, "Who's got the crack? Who-ooh-ooh's got the crack?" at the top of her lungs. I was a little embarrassed, but also a little proud. Rock on, sweet child o' mine!

So which song is more offensive? Both songs are equally distasteful lyrics-wise, but my vote goes to My Humps. There's nothing much more offensive than Top 40 dreck.

GHS: 2 (nothing warms the heart like your daughter trying to sing Black Eyed Peas)

ET CETERA

Miss Domestic posted two songs from the forthcoming Flaming Lips CD. Yeah Yeah Yeah Song is definitely worth a listen.
